When to hire

When reviews sit unanswered

Most teams wait too long. These are the points where the seat pays for itself immediately.

Reviews sit unanswered The response window closes while nobody is watching.
Platform inboxes pile up Booking site messages wait longer than guests will.
Front desk doing messaging Reception answers online guests between arriving ones.
Bookings drift to aggregators Guests rebook through a platform instead of direct.
Do any of these sound familiar?
  • Reviews sit unanswered past the window.
  • Booking platform messages wait until morning.
  • Reception answers online guests between arriving ones.
  • Guests rebook through an aggregator, not you.
  • Your rating drops before anyone notices.
  • Nobody owns the loyalty program.

Model fit

Where your guest agents work best

Hire in the US when
  • A brand requires a domestic voice on reviews
  • The seat also covers the front desk
  • Loyalty decisions sit with property management
Hire globally when
  • Guest messaging is text and timezone free
  • Review windows need daily attention
  • Pre arrival outreach is scheduled work

Both models carry the same vetting bar and the same guarantee. Pricing for each is above.

Role / responsibility Global US direct hire Why
Guest messaging across platforms Global Text based and timezone independent
Review responses Global Daily attention beats local presence
Pre arrival outreach Global Scheduled messaging, staffs globally
Loyalty program administration Global System work with no site need
Front desk coverage US direct hire Physical, stays a US hire
Brand voice sign off US direct hire Usually held by your marketing lead
Guest survey analysis Global Data work, staffs globally
Direct booking follow up Global Messaging with no location benefit

One partner, onshore and global

A US office manager working alongside two fully managed global assistants is a Tuesday, not an exception. You pick the model per desk and we run both under one partner.

FAQ

Administrative Support staffing, answered

Which guest experience seat should we hire first?

Usually the Guest Messaging Agent, because unanswered messages across booking platforms cost bookings immediately. The Review Response Specialist is the common second hire, since unanswered reviews sit permanently on the listing that decides future bookings. Properties with a mature loyalty program sometimes start there instead.

Can a Guest Experience seat be staffed remotely?

Yes, for the parts of Guest Experience that run in software and on calls. Fully managed global talent covers those on your working hours, while anything requiring physical presence stays a US direct hire. You choose per seat, and the vetting bar does not change between the two.

How quickly can we get review responses covered?

Shortlist in 10 calendar days from the discovery call, onboarding in 21 days. Review response windows are short, so if you have a backlog, say so on the call: clearing history and holding the window going forward are different amounts of work.

Will these hires work in our booking platform inboxes?

Yes. Agents work in the booking platform inboxes and messaging tools you already use, replying under your voice guide and your escalation rules. Platform fluency is tested during vetting, so someone presented as a Review Response Specialist has drafted replies to real reviews, including a bad one.

Can we scale guest experience with occupancy?

Yes. Fully managed global seats run month to month, so messaging cover can follow your occupancy curve without severance exposure, and US direct hires stay permanent employees on your payroll. Because the work is text and timezone independent, most properties find one global seat covers more hours than two local ones.

What does review and messaging coverage cost?

This desk is nearly always Global Fully Managed, from $12/hr all-inclusive, month to month, which is why the numbers work. One global seat answering evenings and weekends typically costs less than adding hours to a US front desk rota, and it holds the review window every day.

Will guests know the replies are not from the property?

They should not, and that is the test. Agents write to your voice guide, sign off as the property, and escalate anything they should not answer. During vetting we test exactly this with real reviews, including a bad one, so you see the tone before you hire.

How many properties can one seat cover?

Usually two or three small properties, or one busy one. The limiting factor is review volume and message response windows rather than room count. Tell us your monthly review volume on the call and we will size it honestly, including saying when one seat is not enough.
